The Somerset wills index doesn't have any entries for Pepler or Peppler:

Hmmm, the Somerset OPC site has the surname as Pipler for the 1788 baptism, (26th Oct) and FamilySearch has a marriage for William Pipler and Sarah Ashley 29 Jul 1788 at St Philip and St Jacob in Bristol.

The Bristol marriages CD has the date as 27th Jul, both OTP, she a widow, marriage by licence.

Thanks Kate! That marriage sounds really possible. Sarah died within a couple of years of her marriage so I don't have an age at burial for her either.

I have records for the family about 50:50 Pipler/Pepler, but Pepler wins out eventually!
